Great ideas, poor execution
Many mention GTA III when mentioning this game and while I admit there's many similarities but there's also a reason why GTA is now a world famous name and Urban Chaos a forgotten one. Graphically, Urban Chaos looks horrible for a 1999 game. I mean, Quake III Arena was released this year. The fact that it was made for the very aging Playstation 1 says it all. The PC release was a joke, too. Without a gamepad it was practically unplayable - the camera was terrible and there was no mouse support. The car handling is frustration and annoying: your car will stop responding for no reason and take seconds to respond again, sliding around corners is impossible since it's like your tires are glued to the ground, etc. etc. In general, the game responds badly - controls are very sloppy and it can get very frustrating when the game doesn't do what you want it to do. You also have to be in the exact spot for the game to do what you want - there's almost zero margin. Summed up, it's a third rate GTA game without the charisma, the brilliant music and great setting. I mean, the game got slammed in the press for the negatives above so why ignore them now? Since then we've been treated to half a dozen games much better than this.
